Jeremiah 20:15-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
15 Cursed be the man
who brought the news to my father, saying,
“A child is born to you, a son,”
making him very glad.(A)
16 Let that man be like the cities
that the Lord overthrew without pity;
let him hear a cry in the morning
and an alarm at noon,(B)
17 because he did not kill me in the womb;
so my mother would have been my grave
and her womb forever pregnant.(C)
